2. "It is one of the world's most popular games, played by millions of people worldwide in homes, parks, clubs, online, by correspondence, and in tournaments" -- it may be worth adding "schools" to this list. "tournaments" seems to be unrelated to other entries and so may have to be re-phrased.
63:"It is considered bad etiquette to continue playing when in a truly hopeless position" -- this statement seems vague and unnecessary, although generally understood. Nobody will continue to play unless he feels there is a chance of opponent making a blunder. 26:

43:-- "objective to checkmate" sounds informal; may have to be modified to "objective of checkmating". 76:
What about the role of intuition? Can we add that either here or under "Psychology" section?

2. "Each chess piece has its own style of moving " or movement ?

1. "a null move is not allowed" has not been mentioned anywhere.
40:-- Here, there is no mention of supporting one's own pieces. 8: 7: 14: 60:In the End of the game section: 1: 73:Strategy and Tactics :- 23:In the introductory section: 90: 67:In Time Control Section: 47:In the Movement section: 81: 89: 88: 84: 83: 82: 80: 79: 78: 66: 59: 46: 19: 12: 11: 5: 87: 85: 13: 10: 9: 6: 4: 3: 2: 86: 77: 74: 71: 68: 64: 61: 57: 54: 51: 48: 44: 41: 38: 35: 32: 28: 24: 21: 17: 75: 72: 69: 65: 62: 58: 55: 52: 49: 45: 42: 39: 36: 33: 29: 25: 22: 18: 15:
